Xavier, Brooke and a Man Called Clive

Fame, and famous people, seem to avoid me like the plague. If there's someone noteworthy around, I'm most likely in the bathroom. So, I find it funny and entertaining that our friend Xavier from Paris, who now lives in New York, had dinner last night with Brooke Shields and an older gentleman who goes by the name of Clive Davis.

For those of you who don't know who Clive Davis is (just like Xavier), he's the music mogul who not only founded Arista and J Records, he's guided the careers of such luminaries as Whitney Houston, Alicia Keys, Kelly Clarkson and Justin Timberlake to name a few. In other words, he IS music. And we all know Brooke Shields.

So as I told Xavier today on the phone, "Don't let your current boyfriend loose - unless he's unbearably boring." It's by this association that Xavier finds himself dining with the likes of superstars (which means there's still hope for me yet). Then again, I have a feeling Xavier doesn't need anybody to make his way around NY. He's attractive. He's witty. He's French.
